A Christmas present commission for a friend's daughter, featuring the 9-year-old Kaitlyn as a book-loving fairy. It was fun to work with different brushes and effects for this one. And Kaitlyn loved it!

I like the bright colours of the image which make it appropriate for a child and make it feel childlike and innocent. The details are are excellent from shading to the braid in her hair. You definitely get a sense of playfulness and enjoyment from the work and overall a really good triumph. Some additions if you were to revise the piece perhaps work on the details of the outfit but I understand that it is meant to be a childlike image so only if you wanted to make it more realistic.I also like the expression on the face and the fairy dust on her wings which I can see you really thought about.
